Made in collaboration with director and choreographer Chanel DaSilva, this intimately staged song cycle examines the richness of one’s voice in the vibrant tapestry of sounds.
Performed in both English and Haitian Kreyòl, "Ki moun ou ye" invites listeners into an exploration of personal history, drawing on the voice’s historic and ongoing role as a tool for survival, healing, preservation of self, fellowship, and an affirmation of freedom.
